This does not occur when the Wordpad app is running under Wine (have not tried
Notepad) and text insertion point operation seems normal in apps running
outside of Wine. It is puzzling how the Legacy9 operating under Wine can affect
those apps running simultaneously outside of Wine. I believe that there must be
common system code that is shared by the apps under Wine and the apps outside
of Wine. Somehow multiple apps inside and outside of Wine are interfering with
each others use of the function for the text insertion point cursor.

Also, thinking about this further, I think this may be a mouse function, common
code, issue, not keyboard. The mouse click sets the location of the text
insertion point cursor. With control of the text insertion point being in
contention from multiple apps, it is very difficult to enter keyboard
characters. Also puzzling, is the 'time-out' observed. After setting the
insertion point, it stays for several seconds (when you can enter text) and
then disappears (and then, of course, you can't enter text).
